On this set a bad Y-main and kill the X-main and vice versa due to the design combining the energy recovery across both boards.

Alright, I'm not sure exactly what you want me to check but I've been doing some comparison readings and hopefully this will make sense.

I tested these pins against a ground and all the readings came back positive on the new board and pins 1 2 & 3 were 0.0 on the old board so I believe that is all in order.

When I compared this ribbon connector new board comes back with positive readings old board with 0.0 for all pins

I think my X main is good so my next step is going to be to pull the new Y-main and compare it to the old board.

Ah Ha. I may have a culprit. So in testing the connection between the X main and Y main I've found the following.

On the Y Main; All 3 ground pins come back as 0L so i'm pretty sure that is not good. And of the 5 pins marked ERC two come back as 0.0 where the others give a positive reading.
